You love a widescreen monitor for gaming. So how about a nice gaming laptop that expands into a widescreen gaming laptop? Lenovo's made one.

The Legion Pro Rollable Concept is a 16-inch gaming laptop with a screen that unrolls horizontally to a 21.5-inch “Tactical” mode, or all the way up to a 24-inch “Arena” mode. It's wacky, it's fun, it's CES!

With the high-end smartphone market awash in book-style foldables, Motorola has stuck with a smaller flip design while staying away from vertical hinges. Until now.

When we test red light therapy masks, one of the most common testing criteria is whether or not the mask is comfortable and easy to wear. L'Oreal's new prototype silicone face mask and eye patches were developed with iSmart Developments and they feel light, soft, and flexible—hardly more uncomfortable than a one-time-use sheet mask. By my rough estimation, they are about 80 percent less likely to get your spouse to say you look like Jason Voorhees.

It's such a simple insight that it's hard to understand why no one has thought of this before. LED face masks (or neck collars, or eye patches) that are light, beautiful, and easy to use will make it easier for customers to wear.

The 200 LEDs are set in a (again, beautiful!) microcircuit to precisely control the emission of two selected wavelengths of light—red light (630 nm) and near-infrared light (830 nm). You can pick from two different timing sessions and the mask is expected to go on sale in 2027. Guive Balooch, L'Oreal's global vice president of technology, noted that usability is incredibly important for something that you're supposed to wear every day against your skin.

“It's the world's lightest face mask, near 1-mm thick,” Balooch said. While it's important to note that this is still a prototype, Balooch also said that the battery life is incredibly long, lasting for weeks of use instead of three or four uses or hours that is now standard. It also recharges via USB-C.
